Eseda 8
1 Amo esoga, hina bagade Segesisi da hina bagade uda Esedama, Yu ilia ha lai dunu Ha: ima: ne ea gagui liligi huluane Eseda igili i. Eseda da hina bagade Segesisima amane adoi, “Modigai da na sosogo fi dunu.” Amalalu, Segesisi da Modigai ea odagia sia: ma: ne logo doasi.
At that time King Ahasuerus gave the property of Haman the Jews’ enemy to Queen Esther. Mordecai was made one of the king’s personal advisers, for Esther had disclosed his relationship to her.
2 Hina bagade da ea lobo sogo gasisalasu amo duga: le, (e da amo musa: Ha: ima: nema i, be bu samogei) Modigaima i. Eseda da Modigaima, Ha: ima: ne ea musa: gagui liligi amo ouligima: ne sia: i.
The king also drew off his signet ring, which he had taken from Haman. He gave it to Mordecai, and Esther placed Mordecai in charge of Haman’s property.
3 Amalalu, Eseda da hina bagade ema bu adole ba: i. E da ea emo gadenene gala: la sa: ili, dinana ha: giwane amane sia: i, “Hina bagade! Ninia ha lai dunu, Ha: ima: ne (A: iga: ge egaga fi dunu) da Yu dunu fi huluane medole legemusa: ilegei. Be ea wadela: i ilegesu, di hedofama!”
Then Esther sought another audience with the king and fell at his feet and with tears begged him to avert the evil planned by Haman the Agagite and to frustrate his designs against the Jews.
4 Hina bagade da ea galiamo gouliga hamoi amo ema disiagaiba: le, Eseda da wa: legadole, amane sia: i,
The king held out to her the golden sceptre, and she arose and stood before him.
5 “Hina bagade noga: idafa! Di da hanai galea, amola di da nama asigi galea, di da Ha: ima: ne ea wadela: i sia: i ilegei amo hedofama. Ha: ima: ne (Ha: mida: ida egefe amola A: iga: ge egaga fi dunu) e da Yu dunu huluanedafa dia fifi asi ganodini esalebe, amo medole legemusa: sia: i.
“If it seems best to the king,” she said, “and if I have won his favor and he thinks it right, and if I please him, let written orders be given to revoke the dispatches devised by Haman son of Hammedatha the Agagite, which he wrote ordering the destruction of the Jews who are in all the king’s provinces.
6 Ilia da na fi dunu amola na sosogo fi huluane medole legei ba: sea, na da adi hamoma: bela: ?”
For how can I bear to look upon the evil that will come to my people? How can I bear to see their destruction?”
7 Amalalu, hina bagade Segesisi da hina bagade uda Eseda amola Yu dunu Modigai elama amane sia: i, “Hodoma! Ha: ima: ne da Yu dunu medole legemusa: ilegeiba: le, na da e fuga: ma: ne hegoa: nesi dagoi. Amola ea liligi gagui amo na da Eseda ema i dagoi.
Then King Ahasuerus said to Queen Esther and to Mordecai the Jew, “See, I have given Esther the property of Haman, and they have hanged him on the gallows, because he laid hands upon the Jews.
8 Be sia: da Besia hina bagade ea dioba: le sia: i, amola amo sia: dedei da hina bagade ea lobo sosoga gasisalasu amoga bu hamoi, amo sia: afadenemu da hamedei. Be alia hanaiga, Yu dunuma meloa dedene imunu da defea. Ali da na dioba: le dedenanu, na lobo sogoga gasisalasu amoga bu hamoma.”
Now you write on behalf of the Jews, as seems best to you, in the king’s name and seal it with the king’s signet ring. For a document that is written in the king’s name and sealed with the king’s signet ring cannot be revoked.”
9 Amo hou da eso 23 amola oubi osoda (Sifane oubi) amoga ba: i. Modigai da hina bagade ea sia: dedesu dunu ema misa: ne sia: si, ili da ea sia: amo eagene ouligisu amola hina dunu fifi asi gala 127 soge amo da Inidia sogega asili Suda: ne amoga doaga: i, ilima iasima: ne, meloa dedema: ne sia: i. Amo sia: da fifi asi gala hihi ilia sia: defele dedene, amola Yu dunu ilia sia: defele dedene ilima iasima: ne sia: i.
On the twenty-third day of the third month (that is the month of Sivan), the king’s secretaries were summoned and as Mordecai instructed an edict was issued to the Jews, to the satraps and provincial governors and the rulers of each of the one hundred twenty-seven provinces from India to Ethiopia in their own script and their own language, and to the Jews in their own script and language.
10 Modigai da sia: beba: le, ilia da hina bagade Segesisi ea dioba: le dedei, amola Modigai da dedei amoga hina bagade ea lobo sogo gasisalasu amoga bu hamoi. Dunu eno ilia da hina bagade ea hehenasu bagade dawa: hosi, amo da: iya fila heda: le, amo meloa dedei fifi asi gala huluane ilima sagola asi.
Mordecai wrote in the name of King Ahasuerus. He sealed it with the king’s signet ring. Dispatches were sent by mounted couriers who rode the swift, noble steeds, bred of the royal studs.
11 Meloa dedei da hina bagade da Yu dunu moilai huluane ganodini esala, ilia bu gegemu logo doasi dagoi sia: i. Ilia bu gegemusa: , momagema: ne sia: i. Dadi gagui dunu da adi fifi asi gala amo ganodini ilima doagala: sea, ilia da amo dunuma bu gegene, amo dunu, uda amola mano fane lelegele, ilia liligi huluane lamu da defea, meloa da agoane dedei.
In this way the king permitted the Jews who were in every city to gather together and make a stand for their life, to destroy, to kill, and annihilate all the armed forces of any people or province that might be hostile to them, including their children and women, and to take their goods as plunder
12 Meloa dedei da amo hou Besia fifi asi gala huluane amo ganodini, eso13amola oubi fago (A: ida oubi) amoga ba: mu. Amo esoga, Ha: ima: ne da musa: Yu dunu huluane fuga: ma: ne sia: i.
throughout all the provinces of King Ahasuerus on that thirteenth day of the twelfth month (which is called Adar).
13 Amo meloa dedei ilia da sema gaheabolo hamoi sia: i. Amola Yu dunu ilia gegemusa: noga: le momagema: ne, dunu huluanedafa amo nabimu da defea, ilia sia: i. Amasea, ilia da ilima ha lai bu dabema: ne, logo da doasi dagoi sia: i.
A copy of the edict was to be published as a decree in every province – publicly displayed so that the Jews might be ready for that day and avenge themselves.
14 Hina bagade da sia: beba: le, dunu da hosi da: iya fila heda: le, amo meloa dedei iasima: ne hehenai. Moilai bai Susa amola, amo ganodini ilia da amo sia: dunu huluane nabima: ne olelei.
So the couriers who rode the swift, noble steeds went out, hastened and impelled by the king’s commands! Meantime the decree had been given out in the royal palace at Susa;
15 Modigai da abula noga: idafa salalu, amola habuga gouliga hamoi figili, hina bagade ea diasu fisili, gadili asi. Amalalu, Susa moilai bai bagade amo ganodini, dunu ilia nodone bagade haia: fusu.
and Mordecai had gone out from the presence of the king in royal garments of violet and white and with a great crown of gold and with a robe of fine linen and purple. The people of Susa shouted and were glad.
16 Yu dunu da hahawane bagade ba: i. Ilia da beda: i hou fisili, denesi dagoi.
To the Jews there came light and gladness and joy and honor.
17 Moilai huluane amola fifi asi gala huluane amo ganodini, ilia da hina bagade ea sia: dedei amo nababeba: le, Yu dunu da hahawane helefisu amola lolo nasu hamoi. Amola dunu eno mogili da Yu dunu ilima beda: iba: le, ilia fidafa fisili, bu Yu dunu fi ilima gilisi.
And in every province and city, wherever the king’s command and decree came, there was gladness and joy among the Jews and a holiday. Many of the peoples of the earth professed to be Jews, for fear of the Jews took possession of them.
